NEW PRODUCT – Geiger Counter Kit Case

NEW PRODUCT – Geiger Counter Kit Case. Protect your Geiger counter kit and keep accidental fingers from touching the high voltages with this handsome acrylic laser-cut case. Once you’ve assembled and tested the Geiger kit, you can easily install these two cover plates on using the included screws and standoffs.

This is just for the case parts, batteries and Geiger counter kit are not included!

Geiger Counter Kit – Radiation Sensor. Detect particles and/or make a cool random number generator with this handsome Geiger counter kit. This easy-to-make pack of parts turns a simple Geiger-Muller tube (included) into a portable blink, beeping radiation detector. You can also connect an FTDI friend to the header, to get serial output for datalogging on your computer.

We put this kit together in a couple of hours and hand lots of fun bringing it around and listening for ticking sounds near our smoke detectors, bananas, countertops, Brazil nuts, chunks of Uranium, etc. It includes all components (PCB, tube, & parts) but you will need basic soldering tools and two AAA batteries to complete it.
